I listed her as Isabel Elizabeth as she was always known as Belle. She was born at Anderson's Land, Ann St. in Dundee,Scotland. Her surname was spelled with an "e" on the end - Horne but in America the family dropped the "e" at the end. Belle M. (Horn) Farlee, 1867-1942 Rites Conducted for Mrs. Farlee - Funeral services for Mrs. Wm. Farlee, who was burned and suffocated to death at her home a week ago yesterday, were conducted Friday afternoon at 2:30 from the Methodist church with Rev. H. P. Anderson officiating. Burial was in Hillside cemetery under the direction of McIntyres. Mrs. Farlee met a tragic death late a week ago Wednesday afternoon while she was alone at the home. As she was bothered with asthma she had been in the habit of lighting a powder, the fumes of which would relieve the asthma, and it is believed she had lighted some of the substance and in some way her clothes and the bed covers on a nearby bed became ignited bringing about her death. She was found near the bay window on the south side of the room by Mr. Farlee when he returned from town where he had been on an errand. The smoke was so thick in the room that at first he could not see and it was only after he had dragged the burning feather mattress from the house that he discovered his wife's lifeless body. He immediately summoned his neighbors, Mr. and Mrs. Dick Grossart who had just arrived home. They hurried over and gave what aid they could. County Attorney T. J. Howard, as county coroner, and Sheriff T. J. Murphy were called and made a routine investigation but no inquest was held. Belle M. Horn Farlee was born in Scotland June 16, 1867 and died at Wolbach, Neb., Dec. 16, 1942 at the age of 75 years, and 6 months. She came to the United States with her parents when two years old. While an infant she was baptized there. Her father took a homestead three miles south of Wolbach, where the family lived until her mother died in 1879. She was married to William B. Farlee March 12, 1891 at St. Paul, Neb. She lived at Aurora the first year of marriage. She and her husband moved to Wolbach in the spring of 1893 where they had since resided.
